Hello,
I maybe made some uneducated buying, I am in Germany and bought some LG V30+ H930DS, I guess it is Hong Kong Version as it is V11m-HKG-XX.
It is working just fine with German T-Mobile networks, everything like LTE and such. What is just buggering me, will I get any updates on that phone, like security patches or Oreo?
Also, when I enter LG Smart World, I got the attached selection of countries, I thought this might be doable for Germany, too, but I guess I was too optimistic
Would it help to get the Indian firmware version?
Thank you for your help! And no, I do not want to return the phone

He's from Denmark but I don't know which DS model he has -- Hong Kong or India. I suspect Hong Kong as that's easier to buy.

He's from Denmark but I don't know which DS model he has -- Hong Kong or India. I suspect Hong Kong as that's easier to buy over the internet. You can message him and ask. If Hong Kong then that proves he got update notification. M is the latest Nougat right now. US998 is still on C. Only South Korea carrier variants have Oreo.
I also have HKG H930DS version in UK with three and i've had 2 updates since purchasing it.

That sounds good, which updates did you get? I did not get any yet, but received the phone this Saturday with January patch preinstalled.
January is last patch that I received.
I also have the LG V30+, H930 ds, HK Version, ordered via UK. Since November I already got 2 updates OTA, but still no Oreo.
With the LG Suite I set HK as my location, but no further updates there.
So updates works also with HK Version.
I am also waiting for the Oreo update on the HK version, latest update was in January!
Also bought a H930DS imported from HK. I'm also on January software patch. I live in Denmark.
Anyone got voltE or WIFI calling working with the Hong Kong software version?
Also bought a H930DS imported from HK, also on January software patch and I live in Spain.
Let me join here . Another 930ds imported from HK back in November. I receive 2 ota updates since. Last security patch is the same (January). We will receive Oreo, I'm sure
Lg h930ds indian retail version got two security updates hope we get oreo update soon
Hi,
i want buy a Lg h930ds unlocked. There is the possibility that with Oreo update, the phone become yet locked (operator lock) ?
It will not lock to specific network, if you buy it unlocked. Or if you buy it locked and succeed to unlock it, no matter the updates, the phone will remain unlocked.
H930DS in Indonesia region has just received v10j update with march security patch.
Mine also from HK and no update yet, still on January update 7.1.2
Same here..
Hi , the same report from Czech republic , there is still nougat [emoji24]

Not true. H939DS Oreo is posted down in Development. Been released for awhile.
If you're talking about a specific regional flavor, please clarify and don't make a blanket statement?
"The Oreo KDZ for MY H930DS has not been released yet."
But you can flash the KDZ for the H930DS posted -- and before that was released, we found H930DS could even flash H930 KDZ.
However, VoLTE for India carriers doesn't work with those H930DS/H930 KDZ, which is problematic for Jio in particular. But others have flashed the H930DS and H930 Oreo KDZ and are quite happy for now until their regional Oreo is released. Depends on your situation.

i have this version of 930DS and i still have no oreo update via ota ... I know i can flash it but there is no point for lg to not release the update by ota ...
content://media/external/file/159809
yes if you are from India/hongkong or have a H930 phone you can flash the OREO KDZ for H930. pretty much everyone got it running. I actullay looked a lot before flashing, So you can try with a positive hope
Hi guys i did sent email to LG India for Oreo update, they are not sure also. It's longer and longer waiting for Oreo for LG h930ds Indian version.
No Oreo updates on LG bridge also. Why this model stuck on the android version 7.1.2 that was out of the box.
So frustrating LG India H930DS model.
If like this next time i won't buy LG phone from India.

Well if you want to update, search on the other thread, there is one where you can update to Oreo by using the Uppercut and the LGUP software over the pc.
But i believe the update will come soon sometime this month, just checked on the G6 forum and i heard that finally the H870DS version has started to see oreo in APAC region so I'm pretty sure that H930DS will be the next in line as well within days.

Not only to have Oreo, but for bootloader unlock and root and to have freedom.
Ability to run custom ROMs like Boombox.
You can use CIS H930DS OREO KDZ or H930 Oreo KDZ. In both those threads, I have LGUP attached, which you can use to easily upgrade to Oreo. OR you can go one step further, and bootloader unlock and root before LG releases the update that will BLOCK that.
Lots of India users have done that.
See post #193 of the WTF thread.. Full instructions are there for bootloader unlock and root.

It seems that lg has released the official pie update to Europe and other countries like its home country and the US. Did anyone receive the update for the Indian phone version? (H930DS) Because the v40 has received the update on 2nd aug 2019. If anyone has gotten the update and is using the Indian firmware please do respond and if anyone hasnt received it yet share Your thoughts. Thanks.

Not released yet.
No, Pie has NOT been released to any North American variants (including U.S.) as of today's date. Only Europe and Korea.
When ESA (India) region H930DS Pie KDZ is released, you won't have to ask for it. I have KDZ threads ready to go. It won't be a secret.
India Pie KDZ will be HERE:

True. V35 is rolling out, but no joy for the V30.

Well, LG is going in reverse order. V35 was released in 2018, while V30 was 2017 phone. That's why V40 got Pie before V35, then V35.
Some V30 variants have it, but soon all will.
